See you at @ Basingstoke RFC on 8th May

Gosport & Fareham RFC (U13 & U14’s) will enter a team for the Ultimate Rugby 7’s Junior Championship Under 13’s Tournament on 8th May at Basingstoke RFC. http://ur7s.com/academy/ur7s-championships The fourth annual Junior Championships will see entrants from clubs, schools and Invitational sides from across the country. In a different twist from traditional tournaments, UR7s is giving all sides the chance to compete against one another rather than with separate schools and club competitions. The tournament is sure to have a high level of action packed rugby 7s action with teams using the tournament as both an opportunity to demonstrate their 7s skills but also as a development tool for the XVs season. Ravens (U13’s) have selected 13 players for pre-event training to field a squad of 12 for the tournament and the squad will have two focussed training sessions before the event to transition from the XV a side season into their first venture into the 7’s game. Ravens Playing Support Manager, Arthur Rabjohn, highlighted that the coaches see this as an excellent opportunity to develop handling and spatial awareness skills of the selected players in a highly competitive environment. Martin Burnett U14’s Manager added that it is hoped that the squads will learn from the experience both on and off of the pitch.
